Organically Grown Supermarket Rosé - Where to Find It: Trader Joe's Rocks, Whole Foods Not

Kudos to Trader Joe's for making organically grown rosé wines available from not one country but two!

After checking the Whole Foods stores in Berkeley, Petaluma and Oakland for organically grown rosé, I was dismayed to come up completely empty handed. Then I visited the Trader Joe's in Corte Madera.

This is what it looks like there. You can choose from two different wines - and they are prominently displayed.

Shaw Organic (more on their wines in a later post) is from the makers of Two Buck Chuck - Bronco Wine Co. in Madera, California (in the San Joaquin Valley).

The other selection, at $8.99, the De Mont, is actually an AOC rosé from Provence's Coteaux Varois en Provence region, where most of the wines made are rosés.

The quality difference? Taste for yourself (or better yet - blind taste) and let me know your comments here.
